Abstract
A control method for a handheld terminal, including the steps of: reproducing and outputting a piece of music in accordance with a reproduction list; detecting motion of the terminal in real space and determining whether or not the detected motion corresponds to a motion situation where the terminal is moving in real space; obtaining, on the basis of motion information derived from the motion of the terminal, the movement distance of the terminal in real space when the terminal is determined to be in a motion situation where the terminal is moving in real space; comparing the movement distance with a predetermined distance determination threshold and determining whether or not the movement distance exceeds the distance determination threshold; and changing the reproduction list of music to be reproduced, when the movement distance is determined to exceed the distance determination threshold.
